2. Travel abroad is no longer a luxury and nowadays most people in my country have had at least one foreign holiday. Personally, I think this has benefited our society in a number of ways.

Consequently, this helps combat ignorance and narrow –mindedness, which so often lead to racial prejudice and even violence.
